Dear KarenYes, it does. As it is a GSM cellphone, it takes all the Simcard, which are all GSM too.

This is a cdma phone which means it runs on sprint. It does have a sim slot for international use, but is not valid for use on gsm in the US(t-mobile/at&t;/etc) A sim card is for connecting to the cell towers, not for storage memory. That is an sdcard.

Yes this phone does use SIM cards and this was one of the main reasons why I purchased it. To me it's the closest thing to having a smartphone w/out having to actually own one.

no it has to be a GSM phone, the kind that runs with a sim card. This is a cdma phone. Do a little research on these two bands and you will understand a little better. It took me awhile to figure it all out but havent went wrong yet!

Yes, it does. Depending on coverage area, it runs T-mobile at 4G/LTE speed. Their service is just not good, but this is not phone's issue..

Yes, this phone does support a sim card for gsm communications, but you are limited to the 16gb onboard storage due to the lack of an sd card slot.

Yes it does use a sim card, as it is an AT&T; type phone and all AT&T; phones use sim cards. The only problem that I have with the phone is that it is very limited as far as installing any apps on it. It only has about 180 MB to install any apps on. Other than that it works well for me.
